I made a face plate out of a heavy plastic, that matched the shape of the dash in the lower corner of the instrument panel. The metal cage that came with the radio was then attached to this plate and then it was slid through the opening that I had made in the dash for the new design radio. The new face plate was then attached to the instrument panel and dash with screws. It has been there for quite a few years. I installed an Alpine CD AM/FM unit and there is also an Alpine graphic equalizer mounted below it---all in the same opening.
